Take one black man, sitting on his own front porch
Snipers on the roof of a church, looking through their scopes
Take one black man, sitting on his own front poarch
Snipers on the roof of a church, peeking through their scopes
Teaching you the fear!
Take one chicano, with his hands cuffed behind his back
Beat him bout the head, let him know where he's at (he's in Texas!)
Take one chicano, with his hands cuffed behind his back
Toss him in the bayou, watch him sink like a rat
Teaching you the fear!
Try to love another man, get yourself shot dead
Put you up against a wall, with a pistol to the back of your head
Try to love another man, one shot you're dead
Teaching you the fear!
Divide and conquer, well that's an old old game
Divide and conquer, being used again and again
Hate the niggers, hate the chinks, hate the jews
Upper class, lower class
Hate the punks, hate the hippies, hate the cops
Upper class, lower class, MIDDLE CLASS!
Teaching you the fear!
